A standout feature of the GMG96CRAFT is its innovative Craft Ice Maker, which produces slow-melting ice spheres perfect for cocktails and premium drinks. This unique addition sets the appliance apart from standard fridge freezers, offering a touch of luxury with every use. The Slim SpacePlus Ice System ensures that ice production does not compromise storage space, maximising capacity within the doors. The plumbed-in ice and water dispenser, enhanced with UVnano technology, provides purified water and hygienic dispensing by reducing bacteria build-up automatically every hour.
LG’s advanced cooling technologies ensure superior food preservation. The DoorCooling+ system delivers air evenly across every shelf, maintaining consistent temperatures even when the door is frequently opened. LinearCooling further enhances performance by minimising temperature fluctuations, keeping produce fresher for longer. A humidity-controlled crisper drawer preserves fruits and vegetables in optimal conditions, while the Metal Fresh interior finish helps retain cool air for extended freshness. The Pure N Fresh odour control system effectively removes unwanted smells, ensuring that the interior remains fresh and inviting at all times.
Smart connectivity is another major strength of this model. With LG ThinQ technology, users can control and monitor their fridge from anywhere using a smartphone or voice assistant. Temperature adjustments, alerts, and maintenance updates are accessible remotely, providing both convenience and peace of mind. The open door alert system offers audible and visual notifications via the ThinQ app, preventing unnecessary energy loss. Energy efficiency is supported by the Inverter Linear Compressor, which operates quietly at just 40 dB and comes with a 10-year warranty for added reliability. Consuming just 359 kWh annually, the fridge maintains an Energy Efficiency Rating of E, balancing powerful performance with responsible energy use.
Inside, the design prioritises functionality and flexibility. Four tempered glass shelves, six door bins, and two drawers in the fridge section provide organised storage for various food types. The freezer includes six drawers for easy segregation of frozen items. The retractable shelf design and height-adjustable shelving make it simple to accommodate larger items like tall bottles or platters. The LED lighting, positioned both at the top and sides, ensures clear visibility throughout the interior.
Overall, the LG GMG96CRAFT offers the perfect blend of luxury, technology, and practicality. From the stylish InstaView knock-to-see glass panel that reduces cold air loss, to smart AI modes that adapt cooling for efficiency, it delivers a refined refrigeration experience built for modern living.
